Someone you know and love is dying. Your world is falling apart. You're convinced that no one can imagine what you are experiencing. You have so many questions. You scream, ''Why is this happening?'' "My Daughter is Dying" speaks to your pain, anger, doubt, and despair. And more importantly it leaves you with feelings of inspiration, assurance and peace. Internalizing the fact that someone you love is going to die is a hard truth for anyone to grasp, both intellectually and emotionally. It seems overwhelming, unbearable, and impossible. Yet, Lyra Pointer shows us just how God can lift you up and reveal Himself in the midst of your most trying times. With His Amazing Grace, He did just that when her daughter was diagnosed with terminal cancer. In "My Daughter is Dying," author Lyra Pointer will show you not only how God will help you through your painful situation, but also how He will help you to regain the happiness and love of life that you once had.

Advances in technology have produced a range of on-body sensors and smartwatches that can be used to monitor a wearer’s health with the objective to keep the user healthy. However, the real potential of such devices not only lies in monitoring but also in interactive communication with expert-system-based cloud services to offer personalized and real-time healthcare advice that will enable the user to manage their health and, over time, to reduce expensive hospital admissions. To meet this goal, the research challenges for the next generation of wearable healthcare devices include the need to offer a wide range of sensing, computing, communication, and human–computer interaction methods, all within a tiny device with limited resources and electrical power. This Special Issue presents a collection of six papers on a wide range of research developments that highlight the specific challenges in creating the next generation of low-power wearable healthcare sensors.
